Mayor Hewitt Of New YORK, who gensrsliy keeps
pretty level head on his shouiderS has mads .
mistake Of no small Dimensions In Ma letter d.
rected against the candidacy OF Delaney Nicoll
for district attorney. He addresses his entire en-
erzfs 20 the task Of showing that MI. NIcoil's
nomination by the republicans was made at the
dictafion OF the newspapers because the democrats
had refused 10 submit 70 such dictation. whereas
tbs nomination Of Colonel Fellows was made In the
regular ana natural way by the representatives OF
his party. and therefore deserves support. such
an ugvnent defeats itself The records show that
a hard struggle was made bv Mr.. Nicoils friends TO
procure his nomination BY the democratic county
convention, but that they were overpowercd BY o
few votes Now, n the majority was entitled 20
rule In this cas &c h equally entitled TO rule when
the people, who outnumber tRe professional poll
ticians In the proportion Of at least hundred 20
one. make Mr.. Nicon their candidate through their
Douthpteres Of the press such q nomination re-
qulTes no party machinery. II n spontaneous.
That % IL genuine In sentiment may be judged very
vel from the fact that, out OF q Dozen leading
nsvspapsrs ten are not going deliberately to
antagosixs their constituency Of subscribers and
advertisers oy forcing upon them a candfddte
whom they DO not want. such course would be
absurd and suicidal: yet Mayor Hewitt IS trying
tyrannleaI t1an the bosses OF the halls the clubs
and the caucus
The circumstance that the republicans indorsed
Mr.. Ncclls oOmination does noe discredit his DO
sitton IN the least He Is emphaucalIy the peo-
pIs's candtdate. and the party that vas quickest
10 recoenizs the fact deserves all the profit &c can
make out OF It's discovery. Mr. Hewitt himself did
not regard the democratic party as dishonoring

Suggestions.

Gen. Black, Commissioner of
Pensions, in his annual report makes
the following suggestions:
First-That the allowance of 50
per month to minor children entitled
to pensions is not adequate for their
support and should b. increased to
so per month.
Sccond-That the act of June 10,
1880, be so amended as to permit
the benefits of the act to extend
to those who, subsequent to the
date of its approval, from aggrava-
ton of their malady, may haye be-
come helpless
Third-That the existing law that
4 widows pension certificate can
only bear date from the day on
which she files her application
should be amended 10 allow the
continuance of the pensions to date
from the death of the husband, the
other conditions required by the law
being present.
Fourth-That section AIS of the
Revised Statutes be so amended as
90 prohibit the payment of more
than one pension to the same per.
son.
Fiith-That the law requiring a
pension to be granted according to
he rank of the claimant at the time
the injury was received should be
amended so that rank subsequently,
required bonafide may be consider
ed by the commissioner in determin-
ing the amount of the pension to be
allowed.
SiXth-That the present rate for
deafness should be increased by law
to $50 per month for total deafness,
with intermediate grades to be de
termined according to degree of
disability.
Seventh-That discretion should
be lodged in the Commissioner in
correcting discrepancies in the rates
of pensions for loss of limbs, or
Congress should be askad to estab-
lish a table of rates for loss of limb.
Eight-That this law shall be
amended so that the Commissioner
shall be authorized to pay the pen
sion to the wife of a pensioner or a
suitable person on behalf of his
children, when the habits of the
pensioner show him to be an unfit
person to receive or disburse his
pension.
Ninth-That an appropriation oil
$4,000 be made to defray the ex-
Pense of additional necessary per,
sion agencies.

Lying Made Profitable.

Wheeling Intelligcncer.
The following bright and inter
esting editorial appears in the Pitts
burg Commercial Gazette:
West Virginia is small, sparsely-
settled mountain State, near Penn
sylvania, but it has the biggest syn
dictate of liars that ever imposed
upon distant newspapers. Never a
day passes that sensation of some
kind is not sent out from it. If all
the crimes that are related as hap
pening within the bounds actually
took place, one-balf the population
would be in Jail, quarter would be
officers Of the law and the other
quarter would be fugitives from
justice. If all the discoveries of
mineral wealth were true, it would
be producing more gold than Cali
tornia, more silver than Nevada.
more coal and iron than Pennsylva-
mia, more diamonds than South
Africa and more building stone than
the whole New England States. If
all the bears and panthers and Wild
cats and snakes do business there
that are reported, it would be safer
to travel through the junglcs OF
Africa than through a West Vir-
gnia forest. If all the strange PEG.
pie live there that are said to, the
museums Of the world would not
want for freaks for the next hun.
dred years
We are glad TO see that the light
is breaking on the Commeyci0l
Gasette at last, for no newspaper
in the country is more pcrsistcntly
imposed upon than itself lis con.
stantly made the victim Of The very
thing it calls attention TO. We have
long wondered thatthe Commeycjal
Gasetto and other cqally intelligent
newspapers could be so easily im
posed upon. BY accepting the stuff
they make The liars trade profitable.
and so long as they buy there will
be plenty Of the same sort to sell.
The most industrious artisan in
this branch Of manufacture has
headquarters in Parkersb urg,
whence he is able to sell to the
Pittsburgh papers fairy stories To-
Gated in The southern counties Of
their own State and never less than
hundred miles from the point Of
manufacture.

Vol. 3. No. 1.

Two years ago the ADVANCE
was launched on the sea of journal
ism. The first year the sailing was
rather rough-inancially speaking
and rad it not been for other
business the proprietor would
probably have been compelled to
"run his face" (using a slang ex-
pression) for the necessaries of life.
During the year just closed, how
ever, business has been much better
and notwithstanding the fact that a
horde of office holders and county.
rulers have banded together to
monopolize the county printing and
starve out the Ceredo paper, we
have succeeded in "stemming the
tide" and are sailing grandly and
swiftly along-only occasionally
getting glimpse of the shore Of
adversely.
w A''SN CNi 'oNNSNo nav - mo- uSSll
filled to Overlooking, nor our bank
account materially increased, we
have the satisfaction of knowing
we are out Of debt and that the good
citizens of Wayne appreciate our
efforts to give them good local
paper and expose fraud and triclery
We can now plainly see that a
mistake was made when the AD-
VANCE was founded in not putting
the subscription price at one dollar
and fifty cents per annum; but we
shall not raise the price now. All
we ask is; reae,c promptly 1chen
Yolr subscription crpires, and one
dollar will entitlc you to the paper
one year.
We sincerely thank those of our
patrons who have aided us in
extending the circulation and
usefulness of the ADVANCE and
assure them their labors will not
be in vain.

An exchange says; Sixty years
ago bushel of wheat would buy
only two yards of calico or shirting,
now it will buy fifteen or twenty.
Then a bushel of corn would only
buy pound of nails, now it will buy
ten. Then it took a good cow to
buy pair of factory blankets, now
a common cow will pay for six pairs
fully as good. Think these things
over, farmers, whe.n disposed to wish
for "the good old times"
